Review on 🔪 ZHEN Japanese VG-10 3-Layer Forged High Carbon Stainless Steel Light Slicer Chopping Chef Butcher Knife/Cleaver: A Reliable 6.5-inch TPR Handled Cutting Tool by Shawn Trotter

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great paring knife in this price range

I love to cook and own many knives from Zwilling, Wüsthof, Henkel as well as mid-range knives, Dalstrong Lake etc. This is my first Zhen product and he is an excellent vegetable cutter. He has a very thin spine, he is light, agile and very sharp. I've seen comments from some people questioning the "VG10" and I honestly don't know if that's true or not, but I can say this is an extremely sharp, high quality fission device that's around 65, 00 costs. It's my new favorite cooking tool and throws off my favorite Norpro Santuko. Yes, I still use the Henkel Synergy Utility and the Zwilling Chef's Knife from time to time, but Zhen is my new favorite tool. This is a vegetable cutter, not a meat grinder. It is not intended for cutting bones or joints. If you are looking for a meat cleaver, take a look at NORPRO. This is an excellent quality meat cleaver at a very good price as is this cleaver. I definitely recommend Zhen's vegetable cutter and will probably buy another one. I am in no way affiliated with the sale of this product and receive no compensation for it.

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Pretty much everything is fine
